As many of you know I am becomming more and more interested in photography and everything that goes along with it. I love taking pictures of my children although it is becomming increasingly difficult as they get older. I have taken some pictures of friends' babies and I have really enjoyed that. When our baby arrives early June I have many ideas for newborn posing. My photographer friends, Melissa, who I have mentioned numerous times in the past, is a jack of all trades. She is very crafty and I have learned so much from her. Crocheted and knitted hats are a popular newborn photography prop and I have ordered a couple from etsy.com. They can get pricey so I started looking into making my own. I found some tutorials online using the "knifty knitter" (KK). The KK is a way of knitting using a round loom. I knew that Melissa had made hats using the KK so I did not feel uncomfortable purchasing one knowing that I could ask her questions. I have found a new hobby!!! I really enjoy doing it and it is easy enough to work on while watching TV after the boys have gone to bed. I have made several hats and a cocoon for newborns. I had a couple of models in mind to use and let me tell you how cooperative they were!!! They didn't sleep for me but they did anything else I asked of them. Here they are.
Cute, cute, cute!!!!!
